Pass me by...

Life is passing me by
One second at a time
I can hear that clock ticking
Every time is one more second
Closer but not fast enough

The world is passing me by
One second at a time
I lose one second with each tick
And one more with each tock
I'm losing, I'm gaining
At the same time
Yet time is a concept I'm not ready to grasp
Maybe I need more of it...to understand it

She's passing me by
One second at a time
But how can she pass
If she's not even here yet?

One more tick
And one more tock
I'm thinking too much
About this damn clock
